Why aren't we hearing more about Chris Conley?

My question to everybody is why aren't more people talking about Chris Conley. I watched his highlights last night (obviously highlights don't show players flaws) but I feel in love with him as a receiver. He catches with his hands, blows the top off of defense and he goes over the middle to catch anything. I honestly don't know why he isn't been talked about as a late day 1 or day 2 pick. 

 

If you haven't seen his highlights please take a look.

Because he's an average WR.

 

Yeah he's fast but there's a ton of fast guys in the nfl.

 

Yeah he catches with his hands but there's a ton of guys who do that.

 

He's a solid player but his late round grade is fitting.

What do you want? He has good hands, he ran the the top 40 yard dash of the receivers at the combine, also had the highest bench. But I'm not the one to put a lot of weight on the combine. The thing is all of his results translate to the field. He simply runs away from the defense he plays aggressive, plays mean and puts pressure on the defense. Oh not to add that he's 6'2 213. Simply great for a number 2 receiver that we should be looking at, specailly with Ricky Prohl coaching him up on his route running.

    • Also, just for clarity, is this thread meant for general discussion of Bryce Young, or discussion of General Bryce Young?  
    • The word I feel most comfortable using as a descriptor is "inconsistent". Haven't really seen anyone disagree with that. Consistency being one of the things I value most in a player, that makes me lean toward moving on. But he does still have both time and opportunity to prove otherwise. Mind you, having a streaky quarterback isn't exactly a new thing in Charlotte (you could argue it's been the norm). Delhomme was notorious for starting slow but finishing strong. He could sadly also find hos way into ruts that were difficult to crawl out of. Newton, on the other hand, was often known to start hot but fade late (the vast majority of the 2015 season followed that pattern) though it could be argued that was a team pattern as much as it was Cam's.  There are definitely some fans for whom this is always going to be a bridge too far. (or too short) Realistically, it's not impossible that he could still have a good career even with those issues. It's a damn sight more difficult, though. And arguably, less likely.
    • Oh, I did, and they weren't based in emotions either. Granted, characterizing them that way gives you an easy out to avoid responding to them. Similar tactic to dismissing the other guy's points with "nah, you didn't really watch the games" which saves you having to debate what he said. Strikes me as a kinda lazy way to go, but hey both elements are still back there if you feel up to trying later.
